Update your Coastal Carolina Home with these ideas that will transform any space that may need a touch up. It’s almost spring time in beautiful Carolina and what better way to add to your spring cleaning by sprucing up some rooms. You can spend a little or a lot with these ideas. Even the smallest addition can make a room a brighter place.
Redo the Curtains!
A great way to update your space is to change the curtains or add them! Spruce them up with some colorful ones or add a fun print. Chevron is a very popular print this year. To make the area look larger bring in long curtains and hang them close to the ceiling to give the illusion of tall windows.
Give the Furniture a Paint Job!
A creative solution to add color or interest to the room is to grab a paint brush and paint furniture you already have! Some colors that are trending this year are emerald, navy, grey's and yellow's.
Use a Room Divider!
Not only can a room divider make a larger space feel warmer and more put together but it can also hide those area’s that may seem too much of an eye sore. Have an old radiator that isn’t covered up? Place a room divider in-front of it and use it as a decoration piece.
Add shelves or bookcases!
Take advantage of your blank walls by hanging shelves or adding bookcases to an empty space. You can rotate the décor you put on the shelves to adapt to any room or use it as you would a cabinet and store things on them.
Incorporate some Rugs!
Often there aren’t much texture items to a room or color. Adding an area rug or a runner to a space can help bring in textures, color and warmth to a space.
Go to some Garage Sales!
Since, it’s getting warmer Carolina what better way to get some updates to your home then heading to your local estate, garage or yard sales. You never know what you will find! I found some great antique furniture that I added some paint to and looks great in my kitchen as a storage space.
Carolina Home Owners let me know how you added some color, provided extra storage or moved around some items for extra space. I’d love to see it! Let me know if you have some ideas you would like to add; comment below!
